Composition of Rails.

1t is stated that the average compost
ton of rails manufactured at the five
well-known German establishments of
Horde, Krupp, Wikowitz, Phoenix and
Reschitza, is as follows: Carbon, O.31;
manganese, 0.33, silicium, 0.OS; phos-
phorus, 0.09; sulphur, 0.01; and copper,
OLA. But the composition of rails from
the Paris, Lyons and Mediterranean
railroad, and which are said to have
proved better in respect to wear than
the above, averaged as follows: Carbon.
0.S3; manganese, 0.69; silicium, OILS;
phosphorus, nearly 0.05, and sulphur.
0.05. 1t further appears that although
on German railroads the rolling stock
islighter, and the speed of the trains
slower than characterize French rail-
roads, yet, with equivalent conditions
in respect to track, the difference in the
wear Of the rails is ascertained to be as
much as to LIS, in favor of those man.

a breath" p" ''Well, it may be so; but |
am afraid you are deeeiving yourself. "
'Deceiving myself! Goodness gracious,
woman, what do you meanp' Don't
be so impatient; what makes me think
you are failing is this: When you were
courting me you could hold me on your
lap three hours; now you can not hold
the baby on your lap three minutes. y

Another new fashion in Philadel-

which the father or nearest male rela-
tive of the lady usually makes the an
nouncement at the close of the dinner,
and pretty practice sometimes in
dulged is for each guest to pick up a
flower and throw it at the fiancee, who
is thus met with rose shower from all
sides of the table. On this occasion,
reports an observer, "the bridegroom
elect often kisses his mother-in-law
